SAN FRANCISCO and WELLINGTON, New Zealand, Jan. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EIS Group, a core and digital platform provider for insurers, today announced that MAS, New Zealand’s mutual insurer to medical professionals and provider of personal, commercial, life and disability insurance products, has selected EIS Group as its new core and digital business platform provider.

The transformation initiative supports the company’s strategic objective to provide fast, reliable and cost-effective insurance products and experiences to all members, including the next generation.
“Supporting and enhancing ways members can interact with MAS is a central focus of our transformation initiative,” says Kylie McQuellin, general manager of business transformation at MAS. “The EIS Group platform was a natural choice as the only modern solution capable by inherent design of putting all our members on a single platform supporting all lines of insurance business.”

- Support customer journeys with a seamless omnichannel experience;
- Quickly add new products to take advantage of market opportunities;
- Reduce the cost of operations by utilizing cloud-based modern architecture; and
